Preparing for Consignment Sales

It's consignment sale time and this soon to be mom of four is hitting as many as she can.  Usually I only go to one consignment sale a season to buy clothes, shoes, and maybe a toy or two for Ben, but this year I have a lot more planning to do.  I plan to go to at least three sales.  One I have already attended and bought a few summer clothes and shoes for Ben along with a few newborn sleepers.  I caught myself buying gowns because the thought of snapping three sets of pj's at every diaper change did not sound efficient, especially in the middle of the night.  I was able to find one very cute premie sleeper that I had to buy.  Ben was in newborn clothes for a little less than a month, so the thought of little babies is a totally new idea to me.  The next sale I am planning to go to is the Huntsville Moms of Multiples sale also known as MoMsMart.  I am so excited about this one!  I hope to find some great tools and some cute matching outfits.  The last sale I am planning to go to is in Chattanooga thanks to my wonderful sister in law who gives me her extra pass.  I thought I would share my shopping list because it makes me laugh to see it.

The Shopping List

2 Twin strollers that hold infant car seats (Ben loves to ride in the stroller)
2-3 infant car seats (Ben's is really heavy and with 3 to lug around I would like light weight seats)
2 Boppies and extra covers
2 bouncy seats
1-2 travel swings
3 space saver high chairs
2 Bumbos and trays
Baby K'tan double infant sling
Newborn and Premie sleepers/clothes

Although this list is mostly big ticket items, I will also have my eye out for good deals on smaller items.  Wish me Luck!
